"Mom, Wanda''s expecting,” Nathan said joyfully.


    Gary and Florence looked at M''s stomach in surprise. Their surprise was quickly reced by delight.


    "Expecting? Already?"


    M nodded shyly. "I''ve been pregnant for over six months."


    Florence was over the moon. She eagerly walked over to M, took her by the arm, and leaned down


    to look at her stomach.


    "Oh dear, you''ve been pregnant for half a year. I''ve been worried sick about you and Nate for thest


    six months, and it turns out that the two of you had it all nned out. Why haven''t you told me?"


    “I''m sorry, Florence, I—" M started.


    Florence cut her off. "No, no. There''s no need to be sorry. You''ll stay here from now on and I''ll take


    care of you. I''m worried about you staying with Nate. Whatever your appetite is, tell me and I''ll make it


    for you."


    "Mom, I can take care of her. You don''t have to worry,” Nathan chimed in.


    Florence frowned at him. "You''re a man, and you''ve never had a child. How are you going to take care


    of her? Wanda will be staying here. You can just go on with your work as usual. I promise to keep your


    wife well-fed and healthy."


    "Yes, Nate, listen to your mom," Gary added determinedly.


    Nathan sighed softly. "No."


    “I may be able to agree with you on other matters, but not on this one," Florence said earnestly. “I can''t


    imagine her living alone in Sudvi, and I certainly won''t allow you to take her to the frontier.”

    "Mom..." Nathan looked somber as he immediately regretted telling Gary and Florence the news that


    M was pregnant.


    M didn''t want to stay at the Morrison residence, especially not with La around.


    La once loved Nathan, and a marriage of convenience was nned between the two. However,


    Nathan stubbornly refused to marry her, so Duke stepped in and married La instead.


    La had never liked M, and now that she was pregnant, it was even more inconvenient for her to


    stay at the Morrison residence. Besides, she wanted to be with Nathan.


    "Florence, I want to be with Nate. I''ll follow him anywhere," M said softly.


    Nathan was surprised. A flicker of excitement shed through his eyes as he stared at M.


    Meanwhile, Florence and Gary changed their minds quickly. They both smiled and agreed.


    "All right, we''ll support your decision. If you want to be with Nate, then be with him. Let me know if he


    can''t take care of you. I''ll take care of you myself," Florence said.


    M nodded with a smile.


    Gary looked at Nathan with a solemn expression as he said, "You better take care of Wanda and the


    baby. I won''t let you off the hook if anything goes wrong."


    Nathan nodded, feeling somewhat helpless.


    After lunch at the Morrison residence, Nathan held M’s hand and led her to the maple forest.


    "Are we going to visit Daniel?" M asked.


    Nathan replied with a hum.


    "How''s he doing now?" M asked.


    “You''ll be seeing him soon. Have a look yourself.”


    M looked at him and saw that his face had gone dark as if he were angry. She tried to remember if


    she had said something wrong at lunch while following him to Maple Abode. Whenever M came


    here, the beautiful surroundings enchanted her and lifted her spirits.


    After ringing the doorbell, Sienna opened the door. At the sight of M, she was so ovee with


    emotion that she had tears in her eyes.


    She rushed out and hugged M. "Wanda, it''s been so long since we''ve seen one another. You''re


    finally back.”


    "Sienna, it''s been a while." M gently patted Sienna''s back.
